  • "Such a lovely cottage!"

    Incredibly clean and organised, everything had been thought of. I especially loved the binder with all the information for anything you could think of. Lovely touches like the fresh flowers and wonderful welcome pack were greatly appreciated as well. Janice was very helpful and communicative throughout. I would absolutely come back!

    Home from home with all the essentials and thoughtful extras for comfort, this is not accommodation done on the cheap! Even out dietary needs were considered regarding the welcome hamper, which is the best by far we have come across. We had a lovely week in Deal which was made all the better by having Rose Cottage as our base. We thoroughly recommend Rose Cottage and want to say a special thankyou to Janice for her thoughtfulness.

    We had a wonderful week and can highly recommend it. It is perfect for couples. A quiet location with the owners on hand next door, although they give complete privacy. There was a very delicious food hamper waiting for us on arrival and fresh flowers. It was spotlessly clean and bed very comfy. If you want to take a break from hustle and bustle and read a book in perfect surroundings, this is the place for you.

    We then discovered that everything had been thought of to ensure we had a comfortable and relaxing stay - from a well-equipped kitchen, so nice to find good quality new utensils and not the usual cast-offs - to a very welcome and effective fan in the bedroom, a rocking and reclining suite in the lounge that we didn't want to leave and an Alexa - a new experience for us. Not to mention, the new comfortable bed, so often the biggest let down in rental properties. To top it all off, the cottage was beautifully and tastefully decorated. We could happily have moved in! I can't praise the quality of this accommodation highly enough and communication with the owners Janice and Den was speedy and helpful making our whole experience a positive one.

  • "Perfect location for exploring Deal."

    High street and seafront, pubs etc. all within walking distance. Good transport links to Dover, Sandwich and Canterbury for day trips. Cottage provides everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Parking on a busy street was the only drawback we experienced. All in all very enjoyable stay.

About the location

DEAL

Dover 8.5 miles; Canterbury 19.3 miles.

Deal is an historic, Georgian coastal town boasting two castles, both open to the public, two small museums, and two markets held weekly. The town offers restaurants with cuisine ranging from the traditional, to exotic delicacies from the Orient, but, if fish is your desire then why not catch your own by enjoying a spot of fishing from the beach or pier? Deal Castle is an ideal place for children to explore, rugged and exciting with audio guides to help you get the best information, whilst taking in this impressive castle built in the time of Henry VIII. Walmer Castle, which became the home of The Duke of Wellington, and was the late Queen Mother's favourite, is just along the coast with gardens and tea rooms open from April until October, and their scones are highly recommended! Deal was the most important Naval base in Britain during the Age of Sail and although long gone, its maritime heritage is still inherent in its Conservation Area architecture and house names. Deal became a smuggler's paradise during the 1700s, and heritage street maps show where rum and brandy were rolled by casket avoiding the Excise men. Why not take the cycle path from Deal to Kingsdown, a pretty Kent village with views across to France? Here you can rest and recuperate in one of the three pubs all serving excellent food. If golf is your game then there are 12 courses nearby but Royal Cinque Ports, Royal St. Georges and Kingsdown are within an easy distance. For sheer imposing magnificence nearby Dover Castle is an absolute must visit on any visitor's list. Spectacularly situated above the White Cliffs of Dover, this magnificent castle has guarded our shores from invasion for 20 centuries. Deal won the Daily Telegraph's ‘High Street of the Year’ award in January, and was voted as the number one coastal town in Britain by them in November, 2014. Also named as one of the ‘top 30 weekend retreats’ in March 2014 by The Times, Deal is the perfect location for families and friends looking to pursue outdoor activities or laze on the beach enjoying the sea air. Stroll along the cobbled streets, sit and relax outside a bistro or tea room with a coffee, or just gaze out to sea; Deal has something for everyone!
